    Chicken teriyaki rice bowl.
    Mela H.

    Another win by Nou Nou's! Chicken teriyaki bowl was delicious. I can always count on their yummy creations.

    Filet fried rice

    Honestly it's almost problematic how often I get their food for lunch. I had Nou Nou's once, about a year ago, and I've been eating at them like once a week since! Everyone is super kind, the food is fantastic, and the truck is adorable ! I'm never upset with the service or food provided. 100/10 One of my favorite spots in humboldt.

    Tofu & fried rice bowl
    Molly I.

    This is hands down my favorite food truck in Humboldt! Their fried rice bowls are absolutely phenomenal and they are conveniently parked on 7th & K st for a good part of the week which makes for a short walk during lunch. The tofu and fried rice bowl is my go-to, however I can also attest to their ramen being amazing! Service is always quick and friendly and they make calling in orders super simple. All of the workers are so sweet and this place is just consistently amazing. The sauce that comes with the fried rice is to die for and I could seriously eat this every day!!!! 100000/10 recommend Nou Nou's!

    Love the chicken teriyaki bowl, have ordered several occasions but it's time to try the rest of their menu.

    Beef ramen with porkbelly
    Matt S.

    This is honestly one of the best, if not the best, bowl of ramen I've ever eaten anywhere in my life. Classic beef bowl with porkbelly, and yes I will be returning. Had to take a nap after I ate this one. Writing this now a few hours later, I want more.

    Ask the Community - Nou Nou's

    Are the ramen noodles made from rice or wheat?

    Our regular noodles are wheat based, but we can do gluten free noodles with some heads up! We don't sell them often enough/lack storage in the food truck, but just give us a call a day ahead and we can do it.

    Are they opened today thursday Nov 21?

    Hi Lina, our hours are from 12-6 pm today.

    We went on a Saturday with no reservations (very risky!) and had about a 15 minute wait time, not…read moretoo bad, BUT we did have to sit outside and the wind was crazy! So beware and check the weather before going and dress accordingly. It's nice on sunny days but then you have to be mindful of the UV. I appreciate our waitress getting our drinks and food out to us through the chaos of people being seated outside, then being reseated inside when room opened up, or like one table, just leaving! Their plum sake is very good, smooth and light. I also got a hot tea but that was only hot for a moment out there, the sake definitely did more to keep us warm. Their ramen bowls are now my favorite in downtown, the pork is DELICIOUS, the broth could be a drink on its own and the marinated egg has a perfectly soft yolk; it's a very pretty dish. My favorite sushi is split between the Russian roulette and the ocean queen (I think that's its name).

    For being on a rooftop location, the expectations are high ()…read more This place certainly disappointed. Craftsmanship and attention to detail are central to Sushi and Japanese cuisine, none of which I could find in what I was served. We ordered: salmon lover roll, vegetable tempura, and chicken katsu. - salmon lover roll was not notable, bland, almost too sweet. It came with the smallest blob of wasabi and two slices of ginger (one which was very long for some reason). - vegetable tempura was serviceable, if you mess this up you get 0 stars. - chicken katsu is the star of this abysmal show though. I was served two cut up chicken katsu slices. The presentation was horrible. Loosely strewn about the plate over some cut up veg and a fork on the side of the plate. For an $18 chicken katsu entree, no rice is criminal. This entree comes with miso soup which was served in a small bowl half full. Service was slow, took them 40 min to get the food out and the tempura came after the roll. On a positive note they took our card quick, the atmosphere was cool and the bathrooms clean.

Boy have I been eating so unhealthy on this trip, but you know that because you are following. Is that part of the reason I am having so much fun? This did not disappoint. I did not think it was very spicy, but my daughter said it was too spicy for her. Good thing she ordered the mild version of garlic chicken; see below. Decent portions. Garlic Chicken - A more mild version of the above. But with rice and mac rather than fries. A slightly healthier version. Ahi Poke Bowl - My wife's choice. Generous portions, especially the tuna; thank you. Because this is raw, we "forced" ourselves to finish this dish first. So good. And to wash it down, supporting local, Sticky Finger IPA. Ambiance - Small local business. The food truck was parked in the rear of the building. Due to the rain, I did not take pictures. Plenty of mall parking. Open 5 days a week, 11:30am to 7pm; closed on Monday and Tuesday. Service - Counter service. Overall okay. Price - $62 + tip. Reasonably priced as we pretty much took an entree to-go. We are light eaters. Owner Comment - Aloha, congrats on your success since 2017; we will be back!

    It's your #1 place for nondescript bites of gristly thigh-meat and steamed cabbage/vegetable mix…read moreover rice or noodles! If you've ever been to a quick order Japanese teriyaki joint in any mall, you probably already know what to expect here. Beef, chicken, or shrimp (or a combination thereof) over fried/steamed rice or chow mein noodles with a steamed veggie mix on the side. Double chicken for a couple bucks more. All cooked to order on a grill right out front. Maybe some questionable boxed sushi as well. I usually get the teriyaki chicken meal with steamed rice and veggies. While this is definitely mall food (the bar isn't that high) I do have to say that things have changed for the worse over the past half-year or so that I've eaten there. I stopped recently because along with the subpar chicken, the sauce has gotten worse too. My beef with the chicken (Nyuk nyuk nyuk) is that the pieces tend to be gristly and thigh meat in general is pretty high in fat. The real nail in the coffin though is the sauce. In the past few months, something about the teriyaki sauce has changed to where there's no sweetness to it, and a lack of a distinct soy flavor which to me are essential parts of the flavor of teriyaki. As such it tastes more like a watered-down gravy which just doesn't resemble teriyaki at all. The last time I ate there I was about 1/4 of the way through my meal when I thought "I don't like the chicken and I don't like the sauce.....why am I eating this?" So I ditched it and haven't been back since. So all that really leaves is one star for decent service.

    The food is good, and they give you a whole bunch but they seem really understaffed …read more Customer service isnt bad but it feels like you are talking to a robot. The wait is looooooooooooooooooong I kinda think they prioritize door dash orders over in person

    It's been difficult traveling and finding good vegan options, especially with smaller towns that…read morehave lots of hours/days they aren't open, especially "Off season". I'm hoping this helps another vegan out there, or anyone really. We came in for an early ish dinner. At the time it was pretty mellow but that was appreciated because we just needed to relax and enjoy sitting down after hiking the last few days. Something fresh and not too rich where we could take out time and not feel gross. I was curious about the soul options being vegan or not because miso usually isn't, but they had this yummy sounding mushroom and veggie broth soup with vegetables and tofu (I think it's called Kenshin jiru but I might be absolutely butchering that). GET IT! It's not too heavy but has such a great flavor, plus the fresh veggies and bits of raw tofu for protein (they accidentally forgot the tofu but when I asked my server if they could just bring it on the side for me they were super nice about it). I also got some standard edamame and avocado maki roll, both of these were "fine", they did the trick but weren't amazing. My partner had the large hot sake which he loved, and then a tuna maki roll and the omakase nigiri. Same thing with his maki, fine nothing to write home about, but he loooved his omakase. They didn't tell us what was on it but I think it was albacore, salmon, salmon roe, mackerel, yellowtail, and tuna. He said it was some of the best tasting fish/nigiri he's had in a while. Our server was great at refilling our waters and checking in making sure we had everything and was just very sweet, so we appreciated them a lot. We'd definitely recommend!

It's hard to believe that you're still in Humboldt county when you enter in! The workers are all very kind and knowledgeable. They are able to make accommodation or alterations as necessary. Despite that, the food in general leaves more to be desired. The fish is definitely high quality! But perhaps the rice should be a bit more fluffy, and more flavorful. The batter on the tempura was a bit too thick and ultimately caused it to not be cooked all the way. I think the sauces can also be better prepared-- they taste a bit prepackaged and not really homemade. I'd be willing to come again and not order rolls but instead focus on the nigiri or the chirashi bowl.
